I like home remedies too, I got this book from the library and they work really great. The name of the book is called
Natural Beauty at Home by Janice Cox. Check it out.

Depending on your skin type, here are some great masks to try. For oily skin use some plain Milk of Magnesia, rub it on and let dry, then rinse with lukewarm water. It absorbs oil wonderfully!
For Normal/combination skin mix one egg and 1/2 cup cooked instant oatmeal and a teaspoon olive oil until smooth. Spread on your face and leave 15 min then rinse.
For dry skin, mix one egg yolk, one teaspoon honey and a teaspoon olive oil and some vitamin E oil if you have it. Smooth on and leave on for 15 min. , rinse in lukewarm water and pat dry. If your skin is a bit dry you can put a dab or two of either olive oil, or any other light oil, or plain crisco if you want something heavier, on your moist skin after washing or a mask and your face is set without the $$ some people spend for the same look.

I made one with baking soda and water and poppy seeds. Mix it all together until it is a paste-like consistancy. Put it on your face and then when it starts to get dry , get a little water in your hands and wash your face (using the mask on your face) and rinse. The seeds exfoliate and the baking soda tightens up the pores.
Try looking at the about.com website. Or maybe beauty.com. I know there are tons of options available with what you can find at home.

Honey is wonderful! BUT this is what you have to do! Let it sit on your face until very tacky, press your fingers in and pull away fast - this will help "pull" the impurities out of your pores. It even pulls blackheads out! Good stuff!
